The Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (Bersih) cannot hold Bersih 5 rally if it wants to topple Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak, said inspector-general of police Khalid Abu Bakar."We will not allow it because there is way to ask the prime minister to step down as stipulated in the law," he said at a press conference in Kuala Lumpur today.
"If they ask the prime minister to step down according to the law, then we can accept it," he said.
If all quarters organised the rally according to the law, then the police would help facilitate it, he added.
He was asked to comment on the possibility of Bersih 5 holding such a rally in the wake of US Department of Justice's (DOJ) civil lawsuits against 1MDB.
